Car recovery near me & vehicle recovery near me — Edinburgh
Searching for recovery near me in Edinburgh? You do not need to know the name of the road. Send us a location pin and a short description of the vehicle and we will match you with the nearest driver who can actually lift it.
Because our office is in Walsall and work is offered to the nearest suitable driver, "near me" is literal — the job goes to whoever is closest to you in or around Edinburgh, not to whoever is cheapest or next in a queue.
How do I find car recovery near me in Edinburgh?
Call or WhatsApp us with your location — a street name, a postcode or a shared pin is enough. We check which of our recovery drivers is nearest to you in Edinburgh, confirm one fixed price and a realistic arrival window, then send them straight out. Lines are open 24 hours a day.
Is vehicle recovery near me available 24 hours in Edinburgh?
Yes. We take calls in Edinburgh around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. Availability of the very nearest driver changes through the night, so we confirm the arrival window with you on the call rather than guessing.

What drivers say about us
Reviews left by customers we have recovered in Edinburgh and across the wider Central Scotland area.
“Excellent service. Gentleman recovered my car which was involved in an accident on a busy road in Birmingham. 💯 top lad.”
“Very very good service. I broke down on the A45 going towards Coventry — my tyre had burst. Called Auto Squad, came to rescue in half hour. Highly recommended and competitive price.”
“Had to get my car recovered late on a Sunday night in really heavy rain. The recovery truck arrived much faster than I expected, and the driver was calm, friendly, and very professional.”
